This document defines a standard profile for X.509 certificates for
the purposes of supporting validation of Autonomous System (AS) paths
in the Border Gateway Protocol (BGP), as part of an extension to that
protocol known as BGPSEC. BGP is a critical component for the proper
operation of the Internet as a whole. The BGPSEC protocol is under
development as a component to address the requirement to provide
security for the BGP protocol. The goal of BGPSEC is to design a
protocol for full AS path validation based on the use of strong
cryptographic primitives. The end-entity (EE) certificates specified
by this profile are issued under Resource Public Key Infrastructure
(RPKI) Certification Authority (CA) certificates, containing the AS
number extension, to routers within the Autonomous System (AS). The
certificate asserts that the router(s) holding the private key are
authorized to send out secure route advertisements on behalf of the
specified AS. This document also profiles the Certificate Revocation
List (CRL), profiles the format of certification requests, and
specifies Relying Party certificate path validation procedures. The
document extends the RPKI; therefore, this documents updates the RPKI
Resource Certificates Profile (draft-ietf-sidr-res-certs).
